In December of 1997, after winning the world kung fu championships in Beijing, China, I visited Huangguoshu Pubu – which means “yellow fruit tree waterfall.”

The picture we took there ended up being the cover photo for my international bestseller Combat Conditioning. Can you say “priceless?”

For many years I used that “grainy” photo in my marketing and advertising – and still do. Zen moral of the story: when you go on a trip, always have a camera and/or video camera with you. You never know the gold you can mine from a single photo or short video taken when you’re in the right place at the right time. Below is video footage of the same waterfall taken a few years ago when I revisited with my family.

Enjoy the clip.

Be still – and let it flow.
